Hama’s military arm of Al-Qassam Brigades has released a video depicting the bodies of two deceased Israeli prisoners, Alexander Lobanov and Carmel Gat.
This release follows a previous video issued on Tuesday, which featured Ori Danino, whose remains, along with those of five other prisoners, were recovered by the Israeli military on Saturday in Rafah, south of the Gaza Strip.
On Monday, Al-Qassam released a message from captive Edan Yerushalmi, who pleaded with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his government to take all necessary measures to secure her release through a prisoner exchange deal.
However, she was killed shortly afterward in an Israeli airstrike.
Last Sunday, the Israeli army announced the recovery of six Israeli prisoners’ bodies from a tunnel in Rafah, in southern Gaza, accusing Hamas of their deaths.
In contrast, Hamas stated that the prisoners were killed by direct Israeli airstrikes, and held the Israeli military responsible for the deaths of the prisoners in Gaza, accusing them of deliberately stalling any potential prisoner exchange deals.
In a video statement released on Wednesday, Hamas issued a pointed warning to Israelis, asserting that the continued tenure of Prime Minister Netanyahu poses an imminent danger to the lives of Israeli prisoners currently held in Gaza.
Alexander Lobanov delivered in the recently released video a scathing critique of the Israeli government, accusing it of grave neglect.
“You failed us on October 7th, and you continue to falter in every effort to secure our release alive… You are merely attempting to eliminate us for not negotiating,” Lobanov asserted.
“They [resistance fighters] transferred me ten times to save my life” ,he added, stressing that the resistance was saving his life while the Israeli army was bombarding everything in Gaza.
Carmel Gat, also featured in the video, expressed deep fear for her life. “The attacks do not stop, and I do not know whether I will get out of here alive or not because of the attacks,” she said.
